Previously on Picture Perfect: I looked at Heath and he nodded signalling for me to go first "okay everyone meet…"
BIANCA POV
"Everyone meet Miss Imogen Grace Braxton" I said and everyone sighed "that is so gorgeous" Ruby squealed "I know it's perfect" Bella smiled "so what is my first nephews name?" she asked looking at Heath "Jayden Heath Braxton" he said and everyone smiled "it's great" Brax said and Charlie nodded "they are perfect" she smiled "Charlie do you want to hold her?" I asked and she nodded "okay" she smiled as she walked over to beside my bed and carefully scooped her up and cradled her close "she is so tiny, even Mckenzie wasn't this small" she gasped and I laughed "no they were born early and Sid said that twins are always slightly smaller cause they have to share" I said and they nodded. Heath handed Jayden to Brax and he gently moved over to Charlie "they are kind of cute" he said and I laughed "well thank you" I smiled.
A few hours later, everyone had left and it was just Heath and I. Imogen and Jayden had been taken back to the nursery for the night so I thought now would be the best time to talk about the wedding "hey, I was thinking now we could start planning the wedding" I said and Heath looked up at me "yeah?" he asked slightly surprised "what you thought I would just pop out your kids and not want to marry you?" I laughed "well no I just thought you wanted to wait" he said shrugging "well I did – until the babies were born and I didn't look like a hot air balloon" I said and Heath laughed "you didn't look like a hot air balloon" he said squeezing my hand "no you're right I looked like a pregnant whale" I said pouting whilst looking at my slightly deflated monster stomach "sweetie you will be back to normal soon" he said and I nodded "yeah and as long as you still want to marry me then I would like to start planning" I said and Heath smiled "anything for you" he whispered kissing me softly.
CHARLIE POV
"weren't they just the cutest?" I said jumping into the bed and landing on my folded knees "they were" Brax said as he took his shirt off "so I was maybe thinking…." I said trailing off "what?" he asked sitting on the bed to take his shoes off "I was thinking maybe we should try for another baby" I said slowly and Brax looked up at me "seriously?" he asked and I laughed "you already knew I wanted to have more, why are you so surprised?" I laughed "well you said in the future I just wasn't thinking you wanted to start so soon" he said and I felt slightly nervous "what don't you want to?" I asked concerned "no, no, no it's not that of course I want to have another I just thought you wanted to wait that's all" he said and I relaxed and smiled "oh well good then" I said and Brax grinned "shall we get started?" he asked "Brax we can't start until I stop taking the pill the doctor put me on for a while" I said and Brax shrugged "practice makes perfect" he said crawling up the bed and leaning over the top of me as he kissed me softly but passionately.
RUBY POV
Charlie and Brax had gone to bed a while ago and Bella was still awake downstairs. I heard a gentle tap on my door and Casey walked in after "hey" he smiled as I hugged him "hey" I replied as he climbed into bed, me snuggling in close to him "what did you think of Imogen and Jayden?" he asked and I smiled against his chest "they are just so gorgeous" I said and he laughed "I can't believe that Heath could help make something that cute" Casey said and I laughed "true" I said before we settled into a silence "do you wonder what it would be like now?" I said quietly "yeah all the time" he said understanding what I meant "I think she would have been just as adorable as Imogen, she would have had your brown eyes and fizzy hair" he said and I laughed "and she would of hated me forever for passing it down to her" I said and Casey laughed "well I am sure if she was that unhappy we could have bought her a straightener" he whispered and I smiled "I miss her" I said tears welling up "it's probably silly because we never got to meet her and we only knew about her a few weeks but I loved her so much and I miss her" I said and Casey lifted my chin to face him "hey it is not silly at all, she is our daughter and of course you love her and miss her. I do too, Summer would have been such a beautiful girl but I think that although we don't get to meet her she is going to be in our hearts forever, we will never ever forget her – after all she is half and Braxton and half a Buckton!" Casey said and I laughed as he gently wiped my tears away "you're right and we will have a baby one day and I know that a piece of Summer will be in her" I whispered and Casey nodded as he gently pressed his lips to mine.
BELLA POV
I had just gotten out of the shower when my phone went off on the cabinet, I picked it up and opened the text from Cooper
'I'm out the front, let me in. C xo'
I smiled as I wrapped my silk dressing gown around my bare body and went to the door, I saw Cooper standing on the other side rubbing his arms "oh thank god it's freezing out here!" he said rushing inside "nice to see you too" I said shaking my head "sorry baby but it was freezing" he said kissing me softly "geeze even your lips are cold" I said as I took his hand and led his upstairs, he walked into my bedroom first still trying to warm himself up and I shut the door, locking up behind me before walking over to him on the bed "today was interesting" he said and I smiled "I know, I can't believe that I have a nephew, I was beginning to think the tides had changed and the girls were going to invade the Braxton clan" I sighed "is it hard being the only girl?" he asked and I smiled lightly "not really, the boys are always there to protect you, it's hard being a Braxton" I said and he looked at me confused "my brothers used to be in a surfie gang and their reputations precede them, it's hard when you're typecast just because you're a Braxton" I said as he linked his arms around my lower back "what are the reputations?" he asked and I laughed "well they say Brax is the worst of us all because he is a very calm person and when he gets angry you want to take cover, they call him Poker Face because he never gives anything away" I said and Cooper nodded "and Heath?" he asked "Heath they call the grenade, because he can just blow up in a heatbeat and he has a fierce temper" I said and Cooper smiled "well I get that, he does have a grenade on his neck" he said and I nodded "Casey?" He asked and I thought for a minute "they call him the quiet one because he was the one who stayed out of trouble and kept to himself" I said and he nodded "what about you?" he asked and I laughed "me, well they call me Heath-a-rella, because they say I am like Heath only worse" I said and Cooper smirked "well ironically I think your temper is kind of hot" he said and I smiled cheekily "really" I replied stepping out of his grasp as I gently tugged on my dressing gown causing it to fall open. Cooper's mouth dropped slightly as he quickly pulled me into him kissing me intensely as I pushed him back onto the bed climbing on top of him
I was lying in Cooper's arms tracing a circle on his chest when he broke the silence "you never talk about your parents" he whispered and my fingers stopped moving, I looked up at him and blinked a few times before reaching over him and grabbing his shirt, slipping it over my body and doing up a few buttons before I slipped my underwear on. I looked at him before sitting in front of him on my knees "I don't talk about them because there isn't much to say" I said as he took my hand "you know I think they affect you more than you say" he said softly looking at me "my dad left when Casey and I were six weeks old, I never knew him. Brax and Heath got to meet him and know him and although they say he wasn't really worth knowing I just kind of wish I had of found out for myself" I said as his grip on my hand tightened slightly "I am so angry at him for leaving us and I think that maybe had he not left I wouldn't have the reputation I have" I said as I let a tear fall before quickly swiping at it "my mum, she has been a drunk gambler ever since I can remember. For so long I thought that it was normal for your mum to always be drunk and bringing home scary guys but there was this one time when mum came in for my parent teacher interview, Brax had dragged her in and she turned up drunk and was slurring and swearing, cursing me out and calling me names – nothing I hadn't heard before, so I thought it was normal and then she threw up in the water fountain and I remember seeing the looks of horror on all the parents faces and realising that my life was far from normal" I whispered
I looked up at Cooper to see his face bearing a sympathetic look "it was hard in class when everyone was making cards for Father's Day or Mother's Day and I could never make them because I didn't have my parents around to give them too, the year that my mum made an idiot of herself at the school my teacher had me and Casey make something for Brax because he was the one that walked us all to our classrooms, helped us with our homework, brushed our hair and teeth, tied our shoelaces, talked to our teachers about everything. He was our dad and when I was finally able to make something in the Father's Day craft lessons I was so happy that I finally had someone who loved me to say thank you too. I had my grandparents but they lived far away and they sent money when they could but my grandmother was too busy looking after my grandfather who was in a wheelchair so she couldn't take care of us but she used to send train tickets every now and then so we could all go up and spend time with our family" I said looking at him nervously "thank you" he whispered and I frowned "huh?" I asked confused "thank you for telling me, I love you" he whispered pulling me forward and kissing me gently as I wrapped my arms around his neck deepening the kiss as he unbuttoned the shirt I was wearing and slid it down my arms.
